My husband is a hobbyist who dabbles in woodworking. I love all of his pieces because they are unique, creative and pretty awesome to look at! He is very talented, and I am proud to show off his handiwork! We both really enjoy going to flea markets and antique stores and searching for unique or interesting things to recreate at home. He has made several really cool pieces of furniture and wall hangings for our house and to sell at vendor booths.
This is my absolute favorite piece that he’s made– my wedding shadowbox. I had my bouquet dried and separated into three tussy mussies. The we added pics from our wedding. He gave it to me as a wedding gift, so this is very near and dear to my heart.
Second favorite is this table:
Here are some photos of his other work from our Tannehill Trade Days booth:
I have been asked for instructions on how he made some of these pieces, so I will try my best to explain the process in a tutorial (with pictures!). I plan to do several more of these tutorials, so I hope you guys enjoy. Feel free to ask any more questions if there is anything I left out.

That’s awesome- thanks for sharing!
I just happened upon your blog and am SO amazed by this. I think I’m in love with this table. Truly… I think this is going to be included on a wish list for my husband. I have faith he can do it.
Thanks so much for sharing you and your hubby’s expertise.
This is just stunning! The details with the trim is amazing. I’m definitely going to be on the lookout for old windows and table legs! Thank you for sharing!

So beautiful! I love it!!
This is still one of my favorite window projects – the beautiful table your hubs made! I am definitely going to keep this tutorial in mind because my hubs is getting pretty good at building things and I may have him tackle this in the future! I just have to land the right windows first, hehe!
{And that wedding collage is so special! Just beautiful!}
